More Molecule
I posted the other day about an idea I’d had for a patch sheet for the molecule synth. Well I wasn’t entirely happy with the idea and decided to change it to make it more usable. I hope to have a version all sorted by the end of the week all things being equal.
The new version makes it a lot easier to use and work with and I plan to post it up to the Molecule synth forums too.
CZ Manual
Getting my CZ101 was great. I didn’t get a manual with it though, so I picked this up on eBay the other day, and it’s awesome.
Something for the molecule
I’ve started making this. It’s a sort of patch sheet for the molecule synth. A way of recording ideas in advance of trying them, or committing stuff that works to paper so you can make it work again. Once it’s finished I’ll post a PDF of it for anyone who wants to use it.
Paper models, small synths and Foldify
I’ve been meaning to cut this out and see what it actually looks like but I haven’t gotten to it as yet. I like the idea of paper model synths, and whilst foldify is an excellent app for general making of paper models it isn’t as good for synths. Really it just needs one or two templates to deal with keyboards and it would be amazing.
I hope the people at Foldify listen up.
Messing around with my OP-1
The OP-1 is an amazing piece of kit. These are just a few videos of me messing around with it.
Some new sounds, Blerpyness (yeah, it isn’t a great title is it)

Restoring my CZ101
-
- CZ101
-
- Patch selection
-
- CZ101 power
It’s fair to say that the CZ101 I got the other day was in a poor state. In fact it was filthy. Having cleared it up and I found that it still worked after all these years. Even though it’s only a half sized keyboard and it’s got no velocity sensing, it’s still a nice bit of hardware.
Organising molecule
-
- Analogue Sound Generator
-
- MIDI unit
-
- Digital Generator
-
- LFO
With some of the modules in my molecule synth there are multiple inputs but none of them are labelled, so I thought I’d label mine up to make it easier to use. This is actually twice as much fun as I get to use a label machine too.
The only downside is that I can’t get the code for the MIDI module to load. I’m sure it’ll get sorted soon enough though.
Getting to grips with meeblip
-
- Meeblip and Genome
-
- BeatPad and meeblip
-
- meeblip
-
- meeblip up close
-
- Connections
-
- meeblip panel
-
- meeblip and TouchOSC
-
- meeblip and Shruthi
Just a few shots of my new meeblip synth and trying it out in a variety of ways.
I saw this and knew that if I bought it there might be trouble
It’s just one of those subjects that’s been there in the back of my mind for a long time, and when I saw that SOS had a feature on modulars I knew I had to get a copy and see what they had to say.
After a quick glance it looks like it’s a good thorough piece, which is probably a bad thing in many ways as it’ll mean I more likely to get hooked.
Oh dear …
Back to the Reaktor
After a long break I’ve got started again with Reaktor. I’d forgotten how much fun it was.
My new little toy, Pico Paso
-
- Bleep labs sticker
-
- The entire manual
-
- The device
-
- The box
I do love the Bleep Labs.
Setting up the MIDI Molecule
So I’ve connected the UNO R3 into the MIDI element. I’ve downloaded the code, but as I’ve gone to verify it I’ve got problems. This might take a bit longer to sort out than I imagined!
Shruthi progress
-
- Shruthi-1 with boards spaced
-
- Only just enough room!
It’s getting there slowly.
